'anjum' aa'saab sanbhaalo hai yahi rang-e-bahaar — Shehzad Anjum Burhani

aaj ki raat hai bahut bhaari
aaj ki raat bas guzar jaae

dil ki hi kisi baat ko tahrir na kar paae
likhne pe jab aae the to kyaa kyaa nahin likkhaa

ye kyaa ki khayaalon se uDi jaati hai khushbu
main ne to abhi tak use sochaa bhi nahin hai

'arzi insaaf ki ham ne bhi lagaa rakkhi hai
dekhiye zill-e-ilaahi hamein kab puchhte hain

zamaana jin ki qayaadat mein gaamzan thaa vo log
bhaTak gae tiri aankhon ki rahnumaai mein

abhi se falsafa-e-reg-zaar ki baatein
abhi to 'ishq ke maktab mein haaziri hui hai

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

tu dard bhi duaa bhi tu zakhm bhi davaa bhi
shikve bhi hain tujhi se aur pyaar bhi tujhi se

pyaar aankhon se chhalaktaa hi hai
dil ke paimaane mein saaraa na rahe

chaTpaTi dil ki bujhi yaar ke dekhe se yuun
bhuke ko jaise kahin se goyaa khaanaa aayaa

udaas shaam ki yaadon bhari sulagti havaa
hamein phir aaj puraane dayaar le aai

is andhere mein na ik gaam bhi ruknaa yaaro
ab to ik dusre ki aahaTein kaam aaeingi
